Our first result asserts that if f is an NCP map, and fn → f horocyclically,preserving sub-critical relations, then fn is an NCP map for all n ≥≥ 0 and J(fn) →J(f) in the Hausdorff topology. We also prove that if f is a parabolic map and fn is an NCP map for all n ≥≥ 0 such that fn→4 f horocyclically, then J(fn) → J(f) in the Hausdorff topology, and HD(J(fn)) →4 HD(J(f)).展开更多

Especially 2D temperature and concentration distribution plays an important role for the engine efficiency. A thermocouple is intrinsically a point temperature measurement method and noncontact 2D temperature distribution cannot be attained by thermocouples. Recently, as a measurement technique with high sensitivity and high response, laser diagnostics has been developed and applied to the actual engine combustions. With these engineering developments, transient phenomena such as start-ups and load changes in engines have been gradually elucidated in various conditions. In this study, the theoretical and experimental research has been conducted in order to develop the noncontact and fast response 2D temperature and concentration distribution measurement method. The method is based on a Computed Tomography (CT) method using absorption spectra of water vapor at 1388 nm. It has been demonstrated that the method has been successfully applied to engine exhausts to measure 2D temperature distributions.展开更多

The quantities of the TPC were determined by spectrophotometry. Mineral content was determined by flame photometry, flame atom absorption spectrometry (FAAS) and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAA) after wet digestion in concentrated HNO3. The values were comparable to the literature data. The average content in all the samples was (on a basis of weight of the product) 547 ± 28 mg/100 g for Na; 280 ±20 mg/100 g for K; 32 ± 2 mg/100 g for Ca; 88 ±5 mg/100 g for Mg; 0.49 ± 0.09 mg/100 g for Cu; 1.6 ±0.2 mg/100 g for Zn. Both Pb and Cd were determined below the limit of detection (LOD 5 0.10 mg/100 g). The LOD values were determined for each element. The TPC content in defatted samples was slightly lower than the non-defatted ones, showing the dependence on the sample preparation. The calculated average levels of the elements were compared with the maximum levels recommended or regulated by the national legislation.展开更多

We focus on the functional ergodic limits for the occupation time processes of the models in IR. It is proved that the limiting process has the form of λζ(·), where A is the Lebesgue measure on R and ζ(·) is a real-valued process which is non-degenerate if and only if cr is integrable. When ζ(·) is non-degenerate, it is strictly positive for t 〉 0. Moreover, ζ converges to 0 in finite-dimensional distributions if the integral of a tends to infinity.展开更多
